Abstract
Talin, vinculin, and paxillin are mechanosensitive proteins that are recruited early to nascent integrin-based adhesions (NAs). Using machine learning, high-resolution traction force microscopy, single-particle-tracking and fluorescence fluctuation time-series analysis, we find that, only in the NAs that eventually mature to focal adhesions, all three molecules are recruited concurrently and in synchrony with force onset. Thereafter, vinculin assembles at ~5 fold higher rates than in non-maturing NAs. We identify a domain in talin, R8, which exposes a vinculin- binding-site (VBS) without requiring tension. Stabilizing this domain via mutation lowers tension- free vinculin binding in conjunction with talin, impairs maturation of NAs, and reduces the rate of additional vinculin recruitment after force onset. Taken together, our data show that talin forms a complex with vinculin, before association with integrins, which is essential for NA maturation by talin’s effective unfolding and exposure of additional VBSs that induce fast force growth and further vinculin binding.
